Cherish the Koala Bear is part of the TY Baby collection — a series of soft, infant-friendly plush toys from Ty, Inc. designed for cuddling, nursery décor, and gentle play. The medium size (~13 inches) makes Cherish bigger than the small 7″ versions and perfect as a snuggle buddy or display piece.
Description
Appearance: Cherish is a koala bear plush with grey and white/neutral tones — soft plush fur and a classic koala face with a black stitched nose and embroidered eyes for safety.
Size: Approximately medium (~13 inches tall) — larger than the small Baby TY version and ideal for hugging or as décor.
Material: Made of soft, high-quality plush fabric typical of TY Baby toys, designed to be gentle on skin and comforting to hold.
Tags: Authentic TY Baby plush usually includes a heart-shaped swing tag and tush tag — these help identify it as a genuine TY product and are important for collectors.
